R.drawable.icon Error

Hi,
I had this issue earlier on in the book, but by deleting the line I managed to get the program to compile.
Now I have hit the same problem, and the solution doesn't appear that simple as last time.

I'm currently on p.76 (chpt. 2), I get an error on the 'R.drawable.icon'
"icon can not be resolved, or is not a field"

Code:

Notification notif = new Notification(
    			R.drawable.icon,
    			"Reminder: Meeting Starts in under 5 minutes",
    			System.currentTimeMillis());
    	CharSequence from = "System Alarm";
    	CharSequence message = "Meeting with customer at 3pm...";

I can't modify the R.java file, as this is automatically generated, so generates a new version each time I try to edit.

If anyone knows the cause to this error, and a solution. It would be very much appreciated.
Thanks
Dave
